Our algorithms use a new paradigm for differentially private mechanisms, which we call Propose-Test-Release (PTR), and for which we give a formal definition and general composition theorems.}, publisher = {Association for Computing Machinery, Inc.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/differential-privacy-and-robust-statistics/}, edition = {Proceedings of the 41th Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC)}, }
